  • Medium Wiping Stain........A913
    This stain closely approximates the tone of original Shaker furniture seen in museums and private collections.

  • Light Wiping Stain.............A921
    A light honey colour which contains only a small amount of pigment, to highlight the natural grain of the wood.

  • Cherry Wiping Stain.............A917
    An antique cherry colour which is midway between our Medium Stain and Mahogany Stain.Water-based.

  • Mahogany Wiping Stain..........A927
    Chairs produced at Mt.Lebanon, N.Y oftern were stained this wonderful shade of deep red-brown, which we have duplicated exactly.Water-based.

  • Ebony Wiping Stain...................A924
    The Shakers were well aware that in many settings nothing better enhances the delicate, taut lines of their chairs than the rich black which can be acheived with this stain. Water-based.

  • Shaker Oil Finish.........................A932
    For the natural effect of an oil finish, we have adapted an early 19th century formula employing linseed and other oils in a special turpentine base. The result is a finish which can readily be applied with a rag to old or new surfaces, brings out the grain of all woods with a low-luster sheen, and provides excellent protection.
